On Point For College

On Point for College breaks down barriers that prevent young, underserved individuals from achieving education and career success. Because income and parental educational levels strongly influence the decision to attend college, On Point for College generally targets: - Teens who are the first in their families to go to college - Students who assume that college is financially inaccessible - Teens from single-parent homes - Students who fall through the cracks, including GED recipients and high-school grads - Young adults who have no parent in their life to provide guidance (over 30% of our students), including those who are homeless, aging out of foster care, or refugees
